Boston Tea Party

The colonists held the Boston and Edenton tea parties because they wanted to tell the British, and make sure they understood it too, "No taxation without representation!"

John Hancock and Samuel Adams were the two main leaders of the Sons of Liberty

The Boston tea party was not an organized event. It just happened.

the goal of The Boston Tea Party was to protest against the Tea Act. The colonists believed that by doing so in this display, that king george would repea the Tea Act. The Tea Act was repealed after this however, King George was en-raged by the colonists, and a few months later the Coercive Acts were passed. (The colonists called them the Intolerable Acts). These acts were set as punishment against the colonists. The acts included: Shutting down Boston Harbor, un-fair taxing, etc. It made the colonies lose a great deal of money, and put them in great deals of debt.

342 crates were dumped in the harbor.

One of the Coercive Acts of 1774, the Boston Port Act, closed Boston Harbor until the East India Company could be compensated for its cargo lost in the Boston Tea Party (1873).

However, of greater impact was that the Massachusetts Government Act placed all appointments to positions in the colonial government in the hands of the colonial governor or the king.

The Boston Tea Party was not a group of people, but rather an event. It was a guerrila attack during which a group of colonists, angered over a tax the British had placed on tea, who dressed up as American Natives and sunk onto ships then dumped crates of tea into Boston Harbor.

There were many things that led to the revolutionary war. Taxation without representation being one of them, along with the treaty of Paris. Britain started to rule over the 13 colonies in 1763 and wanted to discourage all emigrants (colonists). Of course many of people that lived in the colonies were colonists and did not like their rule. Britain highly raised taxes which led to the Boston tea party of Thursday December 16, 1773. People dressed up as Indians to protect other colonists. This didn't work, and then the Boston Massacre occurred. There is also a lot of confusion about the Rev. war too. Some people think the proclamation of 1763 caused it. No, it didn't that just separated Indians and the colonists from each other.

Not during the Boston Tea Party but soon after. In March 1774 England's Parliament passed the Intolerable Acts which among other measures closed the Port of Boston.

There was only one individual who led them, samuel adams. All the men were dressed up in Cherokee Indians outfits to make it seem like they did it instead of them.

The Boston Tea Party happened in 1773, when patriots dumped tea into the Boston Harbor.

The were an attempt by the British to punish the American colonists for the Boston Tea Party.

The main ally to the Americans that were to help the American Revolution was France. France sent troops and their naval forces to help the American cause. In fact, in the Surrender of Yorktown, General George Washington had several thousand French troops to help him.

France had been a long time enemy of England and helping the Americans made England a bit weaker.

The Tea Party in 1773 was when natives of Boston dumped tea into the Boston Harbor to oppose a British measure for direct imports of taxed tea.

I don't understand this question, but the Sons of liberty did organize the Boston Tea Party. I hope that is what you are asking.

The Coercive Acts were made specifically to punish Boston.
